Episode Four - Aloha for This Place

Follow the lives of three young fish farmers living on the Big Island of Hawaii. Their lives are full of outdoor adventure, science, and exploration, but what does "being Hawaiian" mean to these non-native residents and how does farming fish for their respective companies affect their interaction with this place? The fragile, natural balance of Hawaii's most rugged island will ultimately depend on its residents' connection to it.

Episode Three - Hibernia and The Bay

On one stunning Irish bay that flows to meet the Celtic Sea, you'll find five siblings farming Europe's most highly prized oysters.

These things run strong in the Harty Family.
